Elon Musk

not even sure he even believes he can build his tunnels and suction tubes might be purely an attempt to inject chaos into the public transpo planning process

stando evil industrialist scheming

pushing battery industry forward through demand

But not fulfilled with Tesla/Panasonic batteries. Elon makes all the noise but LG and Samsung make all the sales. Even the 120MW big battery in Australia is full of Samsung cells. It keeps my day interesting that he keeps sprinkling the tech but it’s it where the money is going.

they’re not doing much research overall, right? they’re an integrator/reseller

heh heres the article https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2018-tesla-burns-cash

The thing that really annoys me most about Elon is his name. I really want him to be called Elton Musk. Like a seedy jazz saxophonist from the 70s.

spending a shitload of money and going massively into debt is a total alpha move

will his personal life implode before Tesla does?

looking at his twitter is the most annoying thing

he tweets some shitbag stupid ass shit like "I'm going to create an amphibious moped then shoot it into space" and there's a zillion responses from a bunch of dickriding wanna be Pied Piper ass motherfuckers like "OMG you're my hero"

Awesome sauce!

'everything is awesome', enjoyed without irony

a month ago i thought about buying a share for the first time, risking it on tesla even though i knew there was a high chance of them going bankrupt. now i'm glad i held off.

Anyone with an over-under on a final public meltdown?

yeah he seems unstable

"I am super super serious," Musk said of his candy idea. He also tweeted a movie clip from the animated "Trolls," with characters dancing to Justin Timberlake’s song "Can’t Stop The Feeling!" Musk didn’t provide an explanation for the video.

Thank god he stopped short of saying "super cereal"

uh

lol

“Elon was researching the idea of joking about Rococo Basilisk, and when he saw Grimes had already joked about it, he reached out to her,” says the insider.

oldest trick in the book

they said roko's basilisk would retroactively punish humanity but they could never foresee how

lmaoooo

You realise that if he was ever to become involved in some sort of scandal and subsequent cover-up, newspapers could use the headline, "Elongate"

my favorite headline of the day: Musk's Stock-Option Tweet May Invite U.S. Labor Board Complaint

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-05-22/musk-s-stock-option-tweet-may-invite-u-s-labor-board-complaint

Many Silicon Valley companies give employees shares that fully vest over a four-year period, which has made equity in fast-growing companies a critical part of employees’ compensation packages. The National Labor Relations Act forbids employers from threatening employees with loss of jobs or benefits if they join or vote for a union.

“This is an interesting example of an employer using social media for purposes of campaigning and sharing its views with employees before they vote to decide on representation,” Steven Swirsky, a former NLRB attorney who’s represented companies including Volkswagen AG, said in an interview. “I can foresee the union claiming that this is a threat that the company will discontinue this benefit if the workers chose to be represented.”

Musk would have been on safer legal ground, Liebman said, if he had just described collective bargaining as a give-and-take proposition and warned workers that they may lose benefits in the process.

a genius unlike any other

wow, there is no elon musk news

Well, he's having quite the day on Twitter there.

I was just coming over to say, it just keeps going.

PRAVDA

he’s really owning the Gavin Belsen resemblance

Was his calling it Pravda some weird irony, or is he just stupid?

if nothing else, musk deserves the guillotine for further encouraging peter daou

I'm sure the people who are motivated to evaluate the 'truth' of an article will be untainted, dispassionate defenders of 'verity'.

that daou tweet made my day, just beautiful stuff

so he's just putting the struggle to combat lies and fake news with the pure authorized TruthTM "on hold" to work on a book?

this book will be nothing but lies.

I think he might even be lying about working on a book! Oh my gosh.

well well well

May 24 (Reuters) - The United Auto Workers International Union (UAW) has filed a complaint accusing Tesla Inc Chief Executive Elon Musk of illegally threatening to take away benefits from workers who join the union.

The UAW, which is seeking to represent workers at Tesla’s facility in Fremont, California, filed the complaint with the National Labor Relations Board late Wednesday.

Musk in a tweet on Monday said there was nothing stopping Tesla workers from joining a union, but “why pay union dues & give up stock options for nothing?”

Uh-oh, Elon Musk has caught a Twitter-specific mental disease. You've seen it before. Someone or some group on here has owned him so bad that he is re-aligning his whole life and worldview to prove them wrong. Happens all the time, but only Musk may blow up a planet as a result
